I had been dissatisfied with my nose since childhood,
but concerns about potential complications kept me from taking action.
As more people around me began undergoing rhinoplasty,
I finally decided to move forward and make a firm decision this time.
When selecting a clinic, my main criteria were a single-surgeon system
and extensive experience with complex and high-difficulty revision rhinoplasty cases.
Through this process, I came across Dr. Hyunjoo Kim at RU Plastic Surgery.
Because I had a low nasal bridge and a bulbous nose,
my surgical plan included silicone for the bridge,
autologous rib cartilage for structural support,
bulbous nose correction, and nasolabial angle adjustment.
During the early postoperative period,
the only discomfort I experienced was throat dryness while sleeping
due to nasal packing, and otherwise the recovery was manageable.
After surgery, I was very satisfied to see that
both the nasal bridge and the lateral lines of the nasal tip
became much more refined and balanced.
Overall, I am pleased with the outcome and feel that the result
fits my face well while remaining natural.
